    Load data for ammunition in caliber.348 Win.with all popular powders and suitable bullets, as well as ballistic statistics and technical specifications. .348 Win. Load Data Alternative names: .348 Winchester Our load data for caliber .348 Win. covers 7 bullets from 3 manufacturers and a total of 441 load recipes. Load Data Community Loads Introduced by Winchester in 1936, the .348 Winchester cartridge was specifically designed for the iconic Winchester Model 71 lever-action rifle. Its development came at a time when hunters demanded more power and range from lever-action rifles, which traditionally used cartridges considered underpowered for large game. The.348 Win. was one of the most powerful rimmed cartridges ever developed for a lever-action platform, filling the gap between older black powder-based rounds and the emerging high-velocity, flat-shooting bolt-action cartridges. Its innovative design allowed lever-action enthusiasts access to performance previously reserved for bolt-action rifles, ensuring its place in American firearms traditions throughout the mid-20th century. Even though production of the Model 71 ceased in 1958, the .348 Winchester has maintained a solid following among reloaders and vintage firearm collectors. Its reputation for reliable feeding and hard-hitting performance has cemented it as a favorite for those who pursue big game with classic rifles. While commercial ammunition is less common today, the cartridge enjoys a resurgence among reloaders who appreciate the blend of nostalgia, ballistic performance, and the unique challenges presented by sourcing and loading for discontinued calibers. In the modern context, handloading not only lets shooters tailor loads to their specific rifles, but also ensures a continuing supply of ammunition for these storied lever-actions. As for field applications, the .348 Winchester is best known as a big game cartridge, excelling in North American hunting scenarios including deer, black bear, elk, and even moose at moderate ranges. Its authoritative energy makes it well-suited for brush country where shots are often taken at closer distances and quick second shots via a lever-action can be vital. The relatively heavy bullet weights and the rapid cycling action of the Model 71 combine to create a formidable package for thick woods hunts or tracking large, tough animals. Some adventurous hunters have even relied on the .348 Winchester for Canadian bear hunts and in Alaska, where both penetration and stopping power are paramount. Target species for the .348 Win. notably include larger deer (such as mule deer and whitetails), black bear, elk, and moose. It is especially appreciated by hunters operating in dense forests, steep terrain, or areas with the possibility of encountering game at less than 200 yards. The cartridge’s stopping power, along with the reliability of the lever-action rifles that chamber it, makes it a confidence-inspiring choice in challenging hunting environments. Its effectiveness, however, is typically limited by its moderate trajectory compared to modern magnums, so most hunters and reloaders consider it ideal for medium-range work rather than long-distance shooting. The typical bullet weights for the .348 Winchester are 150, 200, and 250 grains, with the 200-grain load being the most favored and widely available, at least when factory ammunition was in regular production. This range gives reloaders versatility in tailoring loads for specific game or shooting preferences. The cartridge itself boasts a rimmed, bottleneck design ideal for reliable feeding in tubular magazines, and its case capacity supports substantial powder charges for impressive velocity and energy by lever-action standards. With a nominal bullet diameter of .348 inches and a reputation for deep penetration and controlled expansion, the .348 Winchester remains a classic choice—especially for reloaders who enjoy extracting maximum performance from legendary lever-action rifles.

  • Caliber 7 x 66 SE v. Hofe Reloading Data

    Load data for ammunition in caliber7 x 66 SE v. Hofewith all popular powders and suitable bullets, as well as ballistic statistics and technical specifications. 7 x 66 SE v. Hofe Load Data Alternative names: 7 x 66 SE v. Hofe is also known as: 7x66 Vom Hofe, 7x66 SE Vom Hofe. Our load data for caliber 7 x 66 SE v. Hofe covers 258 bullets from 35 manufacturers and a total of 16254 load recipes. In addition, our members have shared 4 load recipes. Load Data Community Loads The 7 x 66 SE v. Hofe is a unique and powerful centerfire rifle cartridge with a fascinating history that sets it apart from more common 7mm offerings. Developed in Germany by the famed gunsmith and ballistic innovator Hermann Wilhelm V. Hofe, this caliber was introduced in the early 20th century, specifically in the interwar period when European hunters and marksmen were seeking higher velocity, flatter-shooting cartridges for long-range applications. The case is derived from the.404 Jeffery, necked down to .284 inch (7mm), resulting in a significantly overbore magnum cartridge that provided cutting-edge ballistics for its era. Named after its creator, the “SE” in its designation stands for “Scharfgeschoss Express” (meaning Sharp Bullet Express in German), emphasizing its high-velocity characteristics. While never as commercially widespread as cartridges like the 7x64 Brenneke or 7mm Remington Magnum, the 7 x 66 SE v. Hofe earned a loyal following among European custom rifle enthusiasts and big game hunters who prized velocity and energy at long distances. In terms of practical application, the 7 x 66 SE v. Hofe was designed primarily with high-velocity, long-range hunting in mind. Its large case capacity allows it to propel 7mm bullets at velocities rivaling or exceeding modern magnum cartridges, making it suitable for hunting in wide open spaces where shots often exceed 300 meters. This made the cartridge especially popular among Alpine hunters targeting wary game in difficult terrain. Custom rifles chambered in 7 x 66 SE v. Hofe were often commissioned by discerning hunters and collectors, particularly those operating in countries like Germany, Austria, and Switzerland, where precision and long-range ballistics are highly valued. Some shooting competitions and target sports have also seen the caliber employed thanks to its consistent trajectory and energy retention. As for target species, the 7 x 66 SE v. Hofe has the power and flexibility to tackle a range of large game animals. Its high velocity and energy make it particularly effective on European red deer, wild boar, and even larger species like elk and moose provided appropriate bullet construction is used. In Africa, adventurous hunters occasionally used the caliber for plains game, leveraging its flat trajectory and superior downrange energy. The caliber can also be adapted for medium game, such as roe deer and chamois, by selecting lighter, quicker-expanding bullets to minimize meat damage without sacrificing effectiveness. Its reputation for deep penetration and shocking terminal performance comes in part from its ability to push heavy-for-caliber bullets at impressive velocities. When it comes to reloading and bullet selection for the 7 x 66 SE v. Hofe, handloaders typically work with bullet weights ranging from around 139 grains up to 175 grains, with some custom bullet options even heavier. Lighter bullets, such as those in the 139-150 grain class, can be driven to remarkable speeds, often exceeding 3,400 fps, making them ideal for flatter trajectories at extended ranges. Heavier bullets, in the 160-175 grain range, offer superior penetration and better terminal performance on larger game, while still delivering impressive velocity and down-range energy compared to other 7mm magnum cartridges. The 7 x 66 SE v. Hofe is characterized by its long cartridge case, bottleneck profile, and ample capacity for slow-burning magnum powders, all of which contribute to its excellent ballistic performance. Due to its relative rarity, quality brass is often sourced from custom runs or formed from parent cases, and reloaders appreciate the caliber both for its technical challenges and its outstanding ballistics.
